Was the 2004 election stolen? No.

In Rolling Stone, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argues that new evidence proves that Bush stole the election. But the evidence he cites isn't new and his argument is filled with distortions and blatant omissions.

    I'm done.

    Within days of the 2004 Presidential election (before much of the evidence had even surfaced or been investigated), Manjoo wrote ad article where he stated that there was "no evidence that Bush won because of fraud." None. Last week he answered Kennedy's RS article with a big "No." The title of Kennedy's article was a question. Manjoo's answer was a definitive, arrogant, "No."

    No one knows absolutely if the last two Presidential elections were "stolen," but anyone with any intelligence knows this: they absolutely tried. Manjoo can shoot holes in Kennedy's article, but he doesn't shoot down all of it. The 2000 and 2004 elections were sewers. Manjoo's attempt so say there is no "there, there" (Conyer's "bull horn in reverse") is irresponsible journalism and an insult to my intelligence. Salon's support of Manjoo and his articles calls into question it's judgement and my faith in being able to trust what else I read on the site. I have been a Salon subscriber for years. I'm cancelling today.
